These companies power bond markets worldwide, positioning them to benefit as emerging markets like the UAE attract more international investment and trading activity.
As the UAE's economy diversifies and issues more bonds to fund development projects, the financial infrastructure supporting these markets becomes increasingly valuable.
From exchange operations to credit ratings and market indices, these firms provide the foundational services that make modern bond markets function efficiently.
As the UAE diversifies beyond oil, its bond markets are expanding rapidly to fund major infrastructure projects. Rather than investing directly in UAE bonds, this group targets the global financial infrastructure companies that make this market possible - the exchanges, index providers, and data firms that underpin international bond trading.
This group focuses on established US and EU-listed companies that provide essential services to bond markets worldwide. These firms benefit from increased trading volumes and global capital flows into emerging markets like the UAE, offering exposure to regional growth through proven international businesses.
Each company was selected for its direct role in UAE's bond market infrastructure. From MSCI's emerging market indices that guide global investment, to Nasdaq's stake in Dubai's exchange, these firms are positioned to benefit as the UAE's debt capital markets mature and attract more international capital.
